Sculptural Stitch Basketry with Lissa de Sailles

In this workshop participants will learn how to construct a small coiled sculptural vessel using twigs and sea grass.

We begin by making a base and then adding twigs from native and exotic trees found in Sydney and the South Coast. This workshop will give participants the skills to construct beautiful sculptural bowls and baskets using sustainable and locally sourced materials.
